Did you mean Triton X-100 which is a common surfactant?

Depending on the format, a Paterson Orbital could be ideal. But do you really need to use a monobath? I am not aware of any monobath will complete within 2 minutes.

A fast RC paper (Ilford) should develop in 30 seconds to a minute. If permanence is not a goal, you could simply rinse or stop the print and not bother fixing it. Even if you do want to fix it, that should only take another 30 seconds or minute.

Which monobath formula develops and fixes the paper that fast? I would be interested to know the formula out of curiosity.

I never said anything about a monobath.

The Monobath Manual lists 14 monobaths which develop paper in 30 sec to 3 min.
